As a matter of fact, you agreed that "if it has even a hint of a slope then it's absolutely worthless and horribly ugly".
Why are you comparing a brifter bike with sidepull brakes to the Polyvalent anyway?
Neither one of them appeals to me at all. I'm into vintage bikes and the only thing vintage about either one is the Clubman's name.
At least the Bob Jackson looks vintage.
